The Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care Vegetable & Tuna Stew Canned Cat Food is clinically proven nutrition that can help transform your pet’s life. As pets age, damage to the kidney tissues may occur, which affects the kidney’s role to function properly and filter toxins and waste from the blood. It is irreversible, and will lead to further loss of kidney function. This may also decrease their appetite, which could eventually result in the loss of muscle mass. And so the Hill’s nutritionists and veterinarians created this special diet, which supports your cat’s kidney function and helps to sustain muscle mass—in fact, the nutrition of k/d is clinically tested to improve and lengthen the quality of life.
Key Benefits- Protects vital kidney and heart function with proven nutrition developed by nutritionists and veterinarians.
- Stimulates appetite and increases caloric intake, and supports the natural ability to build lean muscle daily.
- Made with controlled phosphorus and low sodium, plus therapeutic levels of l-carnitine and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Also includes high levels of essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein.
- Made in USA and clinically tested to improve and lengthen the quality of life.

She likes it!!!!
By Linkandzelda on May 4, 2020
Emmy Lou requires food to support her kidney function.As we have a dog & 3 other cats, it is challenging to make sure she eats her meals & others don't interfere. Usually I hold her dish for her & talk to her to be encourage her to eat & supervise the process.

Kidney Care Cat Food

My cats hated it!
By Margaret on Mar 13, 2020
My 2 13 year old cats, who do have different tastes in food, hated it. Told me immediately that they'd rather starve than eat it. Furthermore, it smells to high heaven - the whole house stank. The female does really like the Kidney Care K/d chicken stew, which isn't nearly as smelly. The male doesn't like that one either. On to the next flavor of the week. I hope I find something soon!

Unappetizing and not economical compared to alternatives
By QueeHey on Feb 11, 2020
I have found that the Hill’s prescription diet k/d canned food for cats to be less than meets the eye. Of the three brands of kidney care prescription canned foods that are available, both flavors of k/d are the worst and least economical. First, the food is very watery compared to those available by Royal Canin and Purina and a single can does not go as far as the other brands. Next, since I rotate the different brands of food, my three cats that need special diets all have a tendency to look at me as if to ask, “Really? This again?” I will use up my supply of canned k/d, but I am phasing it out for the above reasons.

Tuna Stew is a favorite.
By Terrysz on Mar 17, 2020
My Corky is in kidney failure, poor guy. I have been feeding him Hill's K/D food for almost 4 months now. He likes the dry but he loves the tuna stew. This is his favorite. I really feel that the K/D foods are keeping him alive at this point. But, like I said, the tuna stew is his favorite.

the cat loves this food
By carolannr on Feb 20, 2020
Bristol has been on kidney disease diet food since shortly after we adopted him as a rescue. It has been well accepted by him and there have been no further medical issues. It has been wonderful to be able to order this (with our vet approval) on line and have delivery to the house. The most recent delivery happened within 2 days of the order and during a snow,sleet, and freezing rain event. We were absolutely impressed with Chewy service.

Pate is needed.
By Calvin on May 18, 2020
Could you please offer this food in pate form? My cat is 15 years old and has very few teeth. It is hard for him to handle the lumps.
